I know that the starter is going bad. It spins and spins, most times it will catch but there are times it won't. Where is the starter located, what tools do I need to change it out and how long should it take an amateur? Thanks!

It is on the front of the engine at about oil pan height and is held in by 2 bolts. Make sure to disconnect the battery before removing it. If you have other questions, let me know. Also, figure around 2 hours.
